Abstract:
Losses consideration is a key aspect of power system design and planning and has been an area of active research for some time now . Losses studies are performed to minimize the energy losses of an electric power grid. In many cases, losses studies will include a site visit to assess factors such as: type of load, capacitor condition at load location, confirm information's parameters of network such as: line length , conductors size, type of conductors , transformer capacities , voltage drop and line loading. And following the site visit a comprehensive report is submitted discussing the finding and suggestion ways to minimize overall losses of the system.
This thesis presents basic concepts of power system technical losses assessment techniques using NEPLAN power analysis software in distribution system.
